Suppose we are interested in how well people do on a standardized test when they take it for a second time. In a random sample of 400 students who took the test for a second time, students gained an average of X-bar = 12 points. Let’s say that the sample comes from a population with σ = 42. The 95% confidence interval for μ (the mean point gain) is: μ = 12 ± (1.96) (42/√400) = 12 ± 4.12 =...

1.The sample mean is an unbiased estimator for the population mean. This means: The sample mean always equals the population mean. The average sample mean, over all possible samples, equals the population mean. The sample mean will only vary a little from the population mean. The sample mean has a normal distribution. 2.Which of the following statements is CORRECTabout the sampling distribution of the sample mean: The standard error of the sample mean will decrease as the sample size increases....

4) The correlation coefficient r is a sample statistic. What does it tell us about the value of the population correlation coefficient ρ (Greek letter rho)? You do not know how to build the formal structure of hypothesis tests of ρ yet. However, there is a quick way to determine if the sample evidence based on ρ is strong enough to conclude that there is some population correlation between the variables. In other words, we can use the value of...
